Monday’s MLB schedule is a short, seven-game slate with just one afternoon matchup: Texas Rangers vs. Boston Red Sox.
With Nathan Eovaldi on the mound, the Red Sox are massive -332 home favorites over the Rangers this afternoon, and for good reason.
Despite its recent struggles, Boston sits at 70-55 on the season and remains in the AL Wild Card hunt.
Texas, on the other hand, sports the AL’s second-worst record at 43-80.
So how are savvy bettors approaching this matchup?
Are the Rangers worth a shot at such a big price? Or is the value on the total?
Thankfully, our MLB PRO Report offers a clear and easy answer.
Rangers vs. Red Sox MLB Pick
